I know I provided a painting update earlier in the week, but I’ve gotten some progress done on both the Dropship and the wizard. So buckle up for a short painting update! So far, I’ve gotten the Dropship primed! As you can see, there are two kinds of primer on the pieces. Basically, I couldn’tContinue reading “Painting Update: Dropship and Elven Wizard”

Painting Update: Some More Mech Action
Dear Readers, it’s been an extremely busy week, but I did get some painting done. Here’s some pictures of what I have gotten accomplished: Yes, the Vulture is still a work in progress, but he’s a print and I had to re-glue on one arm. As it is, I’m just happy to get some paintContinue reading “Painting Update: Some More Mech Action”
Late Post
Dear Readers, as you may well have guessed, Battletech has been a big part of my hobby lately. Like, a big part. In any case, I browse and occasionally post in the r/battletech subreddit. During a particular conversation between myself and another Redditor, whom I won’t name, he expressed willingness to trade his Legendary MAD-3RContinue reading “Late Post”
Painting Update: Female Goliath Barbarian
Dear Readers, I’ve made some good progress on this miniature this week. Here’s how she looks: I ended up using Wraith Black for her hair, which didn’t turn out quite as dark as I had hoped. I will likely do a dark wash over the hair to darken it up a little. I used whiteContinue reading “Painting Update: Female Goliath Barbarian”
Major Painting Update: So Much Stuff…
Dear Readers, here we are again with another painting update! This one is kind of big one so buckle up! First we have the completed Black Knight. I did some work on the base, including using Citadel’s technical paint called Astrogranite. Here is what the Black Knight looks like finished (minus the dull coat finish):Continue reading “Major Painting Update: So Much Stuff…”
Let’s Talk Battletech: My (current) Miniature Painting Obsession
Dear Readers, I have developed, as the title suggests, an obsession with painting my new pewter Battletech miniatures. Like, I have almost totally abandoned my Dungeons & Dragons miniatures in favor of painting my Battletech ones. And I couldn’t be more excited about it. As my main shipment of Battletech miniatures should be on theContinue reading “Let’s Talk Battletech: My (current) Miniature Painting Obsession”
Let’s talk Battletech: Miniatures – Continued a.k.a The Daily DM Planned Better
Hey Dear Readers, today I’m going to continue on with painting my Battletech minis. I don’t expect this to be a very long post, mostly because I will be priming my two Inner Sphere mechs, and doing a base coat on my Clanner mech. Also, update on my shipment from Catalyst Game Labs, I gotContinue reading “Let’s talk Battletech: Miniatures – Continued a.k.a The Daily DM Planned Better”
Let’s Talk Battletech: Miniatures
Dear Readers, you may remember these guys from last week when I repaired or put together for the first time, these guys: Well, I’ve decided to try my hand at painting these metal ones before I try working on all of my plastic ones. I’m going to, as usual, start with priming. The Timberwolf isContinue reading “Let’s Talk Battletech: Miniatures”
At Last…
At long last, my house is in order. Mostly. But I was able to get my new painting station set up (for the most part; you see a trend?), and got a little bit of painting done. Unfortunately, this afternoon, I ended up having to drive to my local VA hospital for an appointment thatContinue reading “At Last…”
Miniature Painting Spotlight: Pre-primed Hobgoblins…Sort Of
Readers, today we’re going to look at painting a couple of hobgoblins I’m going to be needing tomorrow for the Inglorious Ingrates. I’m going to provide a step-by-step process on how I’m going to go about painting these miniatures. As we are going to be dealing with miniatures that are already prime, we are goingContinue reading “Miniature Painting Spotlight: Pre-primed Hobgoblins…Sort Of”
Late Post
So everything that has gone wrong has gone wrong, Dear Readers. Originally, I was planning on doing a How-To post on painting miniatures. Then I realized that I still had a commission that I was behind in delivering. You know the one. That Goliath Barbarian. The problem is, I had started to take pictures andContinue reading “Late Post”
NOT A Player’s Perspective
Dear Readers, unfortunately we don’t have an issue of A Player’s Perspective tonight, as Brandon, our weekly contributor for that article, was gone that evening. He’ll be back next week with a great update for you. In the mean time, I have finished the planetar! Here he is: As you can see, I put aContinue reading “NOT A Player’s Perspective”
VERY Brief Painting Update: Goliath Barbarian
Hello, Dear Readers! It’s been one heck of a week, and it’s looking at being busier as my birthday is coming up this Friday (yay me!). Unfortunately, that means I didn’t get a lot of painting done this week (although I plan on having it for next Tuesday!). Here is the update on the Barbarian:Continue reading “VERY Brief Painting Update: Goliath Barbarian”
Still Waiting…
Dear Readers, As I write this, I am still waiting on both my Dice Envy box, as well as my Clan Invasion Kickstarter boxes. And the wait is killing me. I have delivery confirmation for this Saturday for my Dice Envy and I am excited. That Monday is the day I will be posting myContinue reading “Still Waiting…”

Painting Update: Short One, Because It’s Humid!
As many of you know, when you paint miniatures, it is necessary to have a nice try environment so that the miniatures will dry out and you can move on to the next layer. The problem here is that it is so hot and humid outside that the AC can’t keep up with my sunroomContinue reading “Painting Update: Short One, Because It’s Humid!”
Product Unboxing: Nolzur’s Marvelous Pigments – Underdark Paint Set
Here we are, Dear Readers, with another product unboxing! For those that remember, the Undead paint set was the last product unboxing that I did. The underdark paint set is of a similar vein. 10 paints, one being a metallic, and a miniature. As we saw last time, it’s a pretty standard box of paints.Continue reading “Product Unboxing: Nolzur’s Marvelous Pigments – Underdark Paint Set”
Painting Update: Goliath Barbarian and Planetar
First off, I’m really excited about these two projects. In particular, I’m really excited about the planetar. I think he, in particular, is going to turn out particularly well. Not to say I’m not going to put forth my best effort on the goliath, but the planetar is looking good to me. First off, theContinue reading “Painting Update: Goliath Barbarian and Planetar”
Upcoming Projects
So I have a number of projects coming down the pipeline that I am excited to share with you all! Battletech: Clan Invasion Unboxing I’ve said a number of times that, while D&D is most definitely my jam, I have a love of all things tabletop gaming. My other tabletop love is Battletech. Catalyst Games,Continue reading “Upcoming Projects”
Die Cast Miniatures
A while back my friend happened to have been in a store and found the coolest thing. I had heard of it but I hadn’t actually gotten around to buying one. She found them on sale. Noticed that each one comes with some sort of iconic character or creature. The first one comes with theContinue reading “Die Cast Miniatures”
